Marie received the transfer and called the salesperson in, requesting to see the house first before

making the payment.

The salesperson immediately went to start the car with a spring in their step, taking Marie to the

West Suburbs Mansion.

On the road, Marie looked out the window, contemplating her plans after buying the mansion. She

would first settle Emory and the others down. Once the situation calmed down, she would let Emory

and the rest decide whether they wanted to live with her in Las Vegas or find their own path.

After all, when they meet, she will be there as Marie, not Rose.

Only when Emory and the others are safe can she be at ease to do her own things.

While waiting for the traffic light, Marie looked around. Since her rebirth, she had always been

active in the city center and hadn’t been to the suburbs yet. It seemed quite nice here.

As Marie casually glanced at a hotel, she saw Mia wrapped in a coat, wearing sunglasses, and

looking around cautiously as she walked in, as if afraid that someone might recognize her.

What is Mia doing at the hotel by herself?

Before Marie could take a closer look, the traffic light turned green and the car drove away.

She made a mental note of this matter. After dealing with Emory’s affairs, she planned to

thoroughly investigate Mia, as she always felt that woman was quite strange.

Upon arriving at the mansion in the west suburbs, Marie followed the salesperson inside to view

the house.

This is a three–story mansion with six bedrooms. The first floor consists of a living room, kitchen, and

dining room, along with a small courtyard. The interior decoration is excellent, and after a quick

cleaning, it’s ready to move in.

Perhaps due to its remote location, the price isn’t frighteningly high.

Marie was quite satisfied with the place and immediately agreed to buy it.

The two of them returned to the real estate office and signed the contract. Marie paid the full

amount of 6.75 million dollars at once, which made the salesperson extremely happy, grinning from ear

to ear. They immediately promised to have the mansion cleaned from top to bottom so that Marie could

move in the very next day.

After leaving the real estate office, Marie texted Emory [Found a place to stay, you can come over

anytime.]

Emory replied, [In three days, at Las Vegas Airport.]

At last, Marie felt relieved. Soon, Emory and the others would break away from Rodger Group, and

Wren would no longer be able to do anything to them.

However, upon checking the balance of my bank account, I found that I only had 750 thousand dollars

left, making me feel suddenly impoverished.

Suddenly, she recalled the collaboration between Dennis and Terry Group. Dennis had said that it

wasn’t absolutely necessary to work with Terry Group. So, she thought, causing a little disruption in

their partnership shouldn’t be a big deal.

Marie sent a message to Emory, asking [Before leaving, do you want to give a big gift to the Terry

Group, yes or no?]

Emory replied [Let’s hear it.]

[Terry Group is preparing to collaborate with Whitney Group, and they will be holding a transoceanic

video conference at 8 pm America time, which is 7 pm Beijing time. If the news of their collaboration is

leaked before then, Terry Group will not only lose credibility but also the cooperation with Whitney

Group] Marie shared her thoughts with Emory.

“Understood, Kate will receive the collaboration materials tonight,” Emory replied.

Kate, one of Rose’s confidants, is a blonde–haired, blue–eyed French girl who excels in various covert

operations. She is also Emory’s girlfriend.

Kate took action, and Marie believed that Terry Group would soon be hit once again.

She took a taxi to the kickboxing coach’s gym, where the coach, surnamed Martin, was a highly

experienced athlete, proficient in many combat sports.

Marie changed out of her long skirt, put on her training outfit, and entered the training area.

Levi joked, “It’s rare for young ladies to practice this, and even if they do, they usually don’t stick with it

for long.”

Marie smiled and said, “Let’s begin.”

Levi asked, “Since today is the first day of training, shall I teach you some basic moves first?”

Marie shook her head, “I know the moves and routines. I asked you here to help me build my

strength.”

Levi couldn’t believe it, and asked, “You know all of this?” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Marie executed a roundhouse kick, and Levi narrowly dodged it. After exchanging a couple more

moves, Marie was panting heavily and said, “See? I know all the techniques, but I can’t put enough

power into them. I lack aggression.”

Levi was astonished. Marie was extremely proficient in combat skills, as if she had undergone

rigorous training. However, her movements were soft, her strength was weak, and her speed was slow,

as if she had never trained before.

He had never seen someone like this before.

“So, how do you want me to help you train?” Levi asked.

“Fight me until I can’t fight anymore, and then today’s training will be over,” Marie said.

Marie launched a rapid offensive, while Levi focused solely on defense, occasionally striking back.

Marie could only barely dodge his attacks.

Drenched in sweat, Marie felt as if she had returned to those days of devilish training. With endless

days and nights of practice, her frail body strangely yearned for that kind of physical challenge.

She remembered, Seth had said, “If you’re not strong enough, you’ll die.”

However, later on, she became the strongest assassin in Rodger Group, only to meet her end in

Brussels.
